Abarajitha Devi is she also known as Abhayamabika Devi ?

[Guest guest]

I don't know how valid are these connections made between devi-s in

lalitopAkhyana and pArvatI devI in different temples. The source you could

consult is dIxitAr, who is not only a great composer but also a master

exponent in tantra/mantra shAstra. The only place I remember he makes a

connection with ashvArUDhA is in the kriti

 

http://www.sangeetham.com/kritis/abhayAmbikAyai.htm

 

But later in the same kRti he calls her as the one who killed bhaNDAsura.

Hence, I do not know whether you can take this as a strong connection. I

dont recall any such associations in the sthala purANa I have at home.
